1. Uterine prolapse in a stray cat. After giving birth, the womb (uterus) fell out of the body and gets infected as the cat licked it, trying to get rid of it. A cat lover brought it to the Surgery for some drug injection hoping this will cure the problem. Cat immediately operated. This case was reported in "Real Cases" section too.

This case was reported in "Real Cases" section too.

5. Mammary tumour in old cat. The girl who brought in the cat was studying in Australia and her family (typical of many Singaporean cat owners) ignored growing breast tumours which grow fast and become a big lump the size of a golf ball (see mass displayed on piece of white paper). There was not much skin to stitch and a longer incision was necessary. The old cat recovered from general anaesthesia and is well so far. A collar was put around the neck to prevent the cat from licking the wound and biting the stitches out. Breast tumours are common in old dogs too.
